abcdefg Posted September 2, 2012 at 11:29 AM Report Posted September 2, 2012 at 11:29 AM Maybe I will watch the subtitled version as a crutch after first watching the Chinese. I'm catching 2/3 to 3/4 of what is said, but would like to go for more. Quote
liuzhou Posted November 17, 2012 at 01:47 PM Report Posted November 17, 2012 at 01:47 PM China Central TV has now released a seven DVD set with official narration and subtitles in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese. It comes with a copy of the book (Chinese only) and costs ¥146 from Xinhua bookstores. Quote
Kobo-Daishi Posted May 27, 2014 at 10:42 AM Report Posted May 27, 2014 at 10:42 AM Heard that there's a new season ("series" to the Brits) to this program. Bit of a controversy. How it focuses more on individual people and how they focus on minorities (show harmony), etc.I thought they focused on individuals in the first series as well. That Korean girl who went back to her family home to make Korean style paocai (kimchi), that guy with the roof garden, etc.Minorities such as the Korean girl, that tofu guy...or was it mushroom. So long ago. Two years?!?!?! My how time flies!Anyway, there's also a parody of British cooking, done in the style of "A Bite of China", titled "A Taste of Britain" that's gone viral in China. How Brits really love spuds. I mean really love the stuff. ;-)I haven't seen the video myself. Should make for enjoyable light entertainment. Kobo. Quote
abcdefg Posted May 27, 2014 at 10:55 AM Report Posted May 27, 2014 at 10:55 AM I've watched several episodes of the new formula. Seems like they got the word from senior management to add more "human interest fluff." I should add, for people watching in China, that it shows mainly on CCTV Channel 9 中央九台 -- This is the Documentary Channel 纪录片。 Quote
abcdefg Posted May 28, 2014 at 06:27 AM Report Posted May 28, 2014 at 06:27 AM Watched an episode last night. Serious danger of this series is that it will make you hungry and want to snack. Quote
xiaojiang216 Posted May 28, 2014 at 08:01 AM Report Posted May 28, 2014 at 08:01 AM Are 锅盔 featured somewhere in the second episode? There is a place that sells them nearby and the paper bags they come in say something about 舌尖上的中国 on them - a novel idea because they're selling like hot cakes! Quote
abcdefg Posted May 28, 2014 at 08:06 AM Report Posted May 28, 2014 at 08:06 AM Are 锅盔 featured somewhere in the second episode? I don't know. I think there is a book that comes with the boxed set of CD's from the first season. Not sure if it's indexed. Quote
heifeng Posted April 9, 2015 at 05:28 PM Report Posted April 9, 2015 at 05:28 PM Posting the spoof video of this show for your "entertainment", which from Wiki： 中国大陆互联网原创短片公司“可追传媒”参照《舌尖上的中国》的风格拍摄了一条恶搞短片《舌尖上的中国真TM2》，由李红陶一人分饰三个角色“小刘”、“赵大鹏”、“王富贵”，讽刺黑心食品。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t5xmbgX3rQ http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNzIwNTc0MTQ4.html 1 Quote

Guest realmayo Posted April 9, 2015 at 06:12 PM Report Posted April 9, 2015 at 06:12 PM brilliant ... and I feel sick. Not sure I can get beyond the 烧烤 part..... Quote
Zeppa Posted April 19, 2015 at 04:42 PM Report Posted April 19, 2015 at 04:42 PM Has anyone got a Chinese transcript of A Bite of China? I used to have one but can't trace any on the internet now. Quote
Zeppa Posted April 19, 2015 at 04:49 PM Report Posted April 19, 2015 at 04:49 PM Actually, this may be it, although over several pages: http://jishi.cntv.cn/20120510/100189.shtml Quote
